📰 Team News: Orlando City

Orlando City manager Óscar Pareja has to choose from a squad that has some fitness concerns. Wilder Cartagena (Achilles tendon rupture), Nicolás Rodríguez (Hamstring injury), Favian Loyola (Torn muscle bundle) and Yutaro Tsukada (Cruciate ligament tear) are names that won’t be on the team sheet.

💭 Prediction

It seems to us that Orlando City and CF Montreal are probably both going to find scoring goals difficult here.

It’s looking like it could well end up as a draw. That’s why our selection here is for a very competitive game with a 0-0 scoreline when the full-time whistle blows.
